Default new idlewild album

warnigs/promises

i have an advance copy and it is fucking rubbish, its mainly all acoustic guitar and lacks any kind of energy, perhaps they wrote it when they were sleeping

urgh

maybe its a grower

i am fully aware of this dave,

honestly though, the quality of the songwriting has dwindled somewhat and roddys faux american monotone voice is very irratating

i reckoned in remote part/scottish fiction is their best song, but this album sounds like live in a hiding place and i never wanted from the last album.

it is very poor

Cool

I`ll like it then. Roddy was saying that he`s listening to shot loads of folk music to Murry from the X-Certs. can only be a good thing in my eyes.

Looking forward to hearing the album.

Anyone else notice that Kerrang called them "Emo Tinged Scots Rockers"......No.... didn`t think so...

if the rest of the album is anything like love will steal us from loneliness i will cry.

CRY I TELL YOU.

and it won't be pretty. nuh uh.

i'm a bit disappointed at how one of my all-time favourite bands have become so bland. i mean, look at feeder..

*sigh* where did it all go wrong? oh yes, the remote part.

I disagree strongly. He's only just started sounding Scottish.
